Many manufactured food and drink products contain high levels of sugar, which causes many health problems. Sugary products should be made more expensive to encourage people to comsume less sugar. Do you agree or disagree ?
Nowadays, a lot of high levels of
sugar
are contained in foods and drinks, especially in manufactured products
. Moreover
, consuming a lot of sugar
impacts a negative effect on the human body, especially increasing sugar
levels in the human body. Some people
suggest that sugary products
should be made more expensive to push people
to eat less sugar
. I disagree with this
statement, there are some reasons to describe why an expensive price
is not an effective solution.
Firstly
, increasing sugar
prices does not really give a fundamental impact on people
to consume sugar
because there are a lot of variances in manufactured food and drink products
in the market. People
still can choose the affordable prices of sugary products
from the market, either online or offline market. For example
, if government raise the price
of sugary products
in some areas by their governance rules, people
will find another option by searching the products
on the internet which can give them a solution to buy sugary products
from another place. However
, the government have another option such
as socializing the effect of consuming a high level of sugar
, it is more fundamental to give health awareness rather than setting the price
up.
Secondly
, it affects the economic problems because manufactured foods and drinks are one of the basic needs of humans. Furthermore
, It will cause inflation in terms of economics because it generates a domino effect. For instance
, the high price
will affect other commodities that will increase other sugary products
in the area. Thus
, it causes poor people
difficulty buying basic food such
as bread or milk for their basic food consumption. So, it is more important for governance to manage the company or manufacturer by limiting the number of sugar
ingredients in their product to a normal level.
In conclusion, expensive sugary products
are not an effective solution to decreasing sugary consumption because they will generate other problems in society, especially economic problems. Particularly, sugar
is one of the most important nutrients for our body which contains carbohydrate that helps human do their activities, so consuming sugar
is fundamental.Submitted by keamplop on
